Cronus…. Colored.bass .. guitar …..
#If I had adult money it would be so joever#I make impulse purchases whenever I’m sad or stressed#cronus ampora#homestuck cronus#hs cronus#homestuck#home24uck#home2t4ck#Also im legally an adult (I’m 20) but since u become an adult at 18 im like technically 2 in adult years#When I get a big girl job I’m going to make so many poor financial decisions just you wait#bass guitar#esp guitars#ughhhh I love the color sm#Did you know purple used to be my favorite color from ages 0-high school#I stopped having a favorite color a while ago but purple’s coming back in full swing now#Thanks to you know who#(GEO Cronus)#God bless dalishthunder/pumpkinofthedale/chaussette_et_chaussures for making the best fanfic known to humankind#I’ll never emotionally recover from it

“Crusader,” Phases of the Moon Knight (Vol. 1/2024), #1.
Writer: Benjamin Percy; Artist: Rod Reis; Letterer: Cory Petit
#Marvel#Marvel comics#Marvel 616#Phases of the Moon Knight#Moon Knight comics#latest release#Cassian#Khonshu#there’s this thing that Mr. Reis does in this story that drives me absolutely feral#I didn’t actually notice until I was flipping through the physical copy I purchased (there’s my unsponsored plug#to support the comics industry) but the edges of the panel boxes are typically imperfect like they were drawn free-hand but generally neat#EXCEPT (as in here) when Khonshu shows up and then the panel boxes become jagged and irregular and as if they��re coming apart#as if Khonshu’s mere presence is starting to fray Cassian’s reality#furthermore there are moments where it’s like Khonshu’s touching Cassian’s very mind and that’s where you get#big expansive colorful sections acting as a wonderful visual metaphor for Khonshu expanding Cassian’s perception#beyond normal human bounds#it’s such a fascinating variation on/combining of the classical literary conflict of man vs. god with the postmodern conflict#of man vs. reality (with a touch of man vs. author too)#and I love how well that plays into Moon Knight comics (and I’m thinking of Mr. Smallwood’s work on vol. 8 specifically tbh)

still making excuses for oisin in my head btw just to keep you all updated
#d20#fhjy#I am CONVINCED it is not as simple as the rat grinders being evil little haters#like.. maybe I'm overcomplicating it but idk#besides the fact it's not really brennan's MO I think the rat grinders have some big pieces of info wrong#and are acting uninformed in some way whether that's devils nectar etc#don't ask me what I think is going on with kipperlily I have not a clue#I just think that her saying she didn't want to involve oisin in the material purchasing is important#meta gamey wise I think he would have pushed oisin and maryann harder as allies if the ultimate outcome#is them as straight up enemies#same with ivy in a way#that klck IS jace theory is crazy but I kind of love it so that's swirling in my brain somewhere#I'm just so fascinated by her and the fact that her rage against riz is long term is CRAZY and adds such a layer here#god I love how brennan writes a mystery bc I am all turned around but so intrigued#I can't believe I get to watch a bad kids season live as it comes out having the time of my life

behold, a rough approximation of my car if i plug all the specs of the one i bought into the hyundai website's car builder thing!
#it is a hyundai tucson 2025! i promise i did not just buy it for the name synchronicity meme potential lol#they're naming all their kinds of cars after american cities now for some reason idk#but i like this one sooo much it feels super nice to drive & is Big but not Too Big#i discovered during my 2 separate rental ford explorer adventures that my weird vision does benefit from Taller Car#because i don't have to sit in as weird of a posture in order to look down at the angle that stabilizes my shitty eyeballs#but ford explorer is Too Big i do not want or need an actual full sized SUV for any reason at all#this one is a very nice midpoint!#also there's enough connective UI tissue from old hyundai to new hyundai that i'm not like#staring at the dashboard like it's full of god damn ancient egyptian hieroglyphics like WHAT IS THIS HOW DO I TELL IF THERES EVEN GAS IN IT#an extremely frightening purchase but i think probably a good one..?? time will tell i suppose.

on occasion, my team lead at work will give me a ride home. she got a new car last week and while she was proudly geeking out about its features ("i never knew I wanted a heated steering wheel until i happened to get one with this car!"), i myself was geeking out about the tiny dim light in the inside door handle.
i have never seen a car that had that before and i am now obsessed with it! you can see where the handle is without having to turn on the overhead light! and it's dim enough to not be distracting or annoying in the dark! it's juuuust the right amount of illumination to find it without drawing attention to it otherwise.
it's the little things, truly
#it's a big suv so i will not be buying said car myself but oh my god more manufacturers should do this!#there's even another dim light in the passenger foot well#which again provides just enough light to see if there's something down there#but it's so unobtrusive that i didn't notice it until the end of the second ride home i was given#anyway she did good with this purchase. she obviously adores this car and i know my opinion isn't important but i love the little touches#the infotainment screen is easily dimmable to a *good* nighttime level *and* you can set it to autodim#that's not nearly as common as it should be imo

Haha FUCK
#I left the iron on OVERNIGHT#why doesn’t it have an auto shutoff is my biggest question because I purchased it recently and it’s from a pretty big brand#so you’d think a modern appliance that can pose a fire hazard would have some safety features built in#and all I can say is thank fucking GOD it didn’t start a fire in the HISTORIC HOUSE where I work#FUCK#what a way to start the day

I've spent over 15 hours over the last 2 days watching some australian guy mess about with various audio things from the cheap ipods and knockoffs he finds at a second hand store to new high end stuff.
The best bit is at one point he started ending all of his videos with a little clip of his snake Frank. She is very good at sleeping while coiled around a cactus and sometimes just a little bit upside down
#I like when a new random hyperfixation comes out of nowhere#Like I know I'll lose interest in this before long but my god am I enthralled at finding out about if some random knockoff ipod#from like 2004 is going to turn on and then seeing if he can blow up the earphones that come with it#Or if he's gonna pull anything good from his big bag of bulk purchased old devices each time he does a lucky dip episode#I am very far away from being an audiophile myself but I'm still very entertained by most of the videos#Found him cuz youtube autoplayed put his video of an mp5 player for cars and instantly went looking for a playlist when it finished#Anyway it's 1am and I should really go bed o/#Maybe one more video

#ive just been having such a fucked up relationship with it#and how it plays in other ways in my life#and then its i need to save#and then its an impulsive big purchase thats a birthday gift for someone#and then its a waste of money because they dont like it#and then its oh yes i deserve a little treat#and then its always the ones that grew up and have money that are the weirdest with it and the stingest with it at times#idk maybe i just dont know how to say no to people with money because i never want to seem like i cant afford something#and i never want someone to think that im cheap or stingy or poor#i just AHHHHHH#WHEN WILL IT EVER GET ANY BETTER#shawna speaks and no one listens#i just really feel like im fucking my losing my mind these days#i just want to crawl out of my skin and lie face down in some grass#i would go for a brisk walk but god its about to rain!!!! why is god working against meeeee

personal favourite pastime is fantasising about my dream house that I'll never ever be able to afford
#i want a pretty house with a big kitchen and an island and a nice dining table and a big bed and a bay window and a bath AND a shower and#a balcony#and space for all my clothes and a big bookshelf or maybe like a library room#and nice appliances and everything ive always wanted and never been able to afford#god i would kill for a nice dining table but where i live now we just can't fit one and its a non necessary purchase#aughhhh

I’m planning an outfit based around articles of clothing I don’t even own
#whimsy whispers#come tax time I’m making an ill advised purchase after taking care of my big adult purchases#maybe#idk probably not i feel guilty spending more than $20 on things I don’t need#it’s like this money could go towards something better than a (rightfully like it’s worth the price imo) expensive jacket#but god I want the jacket so bad it’s unreal it’s so cute#but hhhhh $150#but also hhhhh when is the last time I was able to buy myself something nice that wasn’t a plushie????#I get like all my clothes second hand b ut also I can’t justify the jacket#I hate being broke I hate guilt#this is part of why I wanna try my hand at adoptables again but like#it’s jsut like adoptables never work out for me#and idk I’m so burnt out from art that the idea of doing commissions kinda sounds like hell#plus I can’t make a commission sheet to save my life lmao

buying a tofu press has changed my life
#becca.txt#i used to never like eating tofu because i could never get it to taste like anything#but then i saw a youtube video and the lady was using a tofu press and it was the quickest impulse purchase i've ever made#and thank god i did now i'm eating so much tofu#where has this press been all my life i didn't even know pressing tofu was a thing now my tofu takes marinades like a goddamn champ#this health kick has been made so much more delicious by the fact that i can eat tofu#also like measuring out food has made me realize how big 'tiny' measurements are???#like i enjoy sprinkling sugar on my strawberries and i googled the calories in 1 Tbsp of sugar but then i measured it out and that is a LOT#like oh my god 1Tbsp of sugar is SO MUCH SUGAR - then i remembered somebody pointing out how many tablespoons are in like a bottle of coke#i measure out sugar and snacks and cereal into serving sizes because i used to eat a lot out of boredom and i was eating way too much#like i was eating three servings of cereal at a time#it has also made me think about what i'm eating and make healthier choices which to my BIG surprise often equates to more food???#like i can eat two slices of low-cal bread and a whole can of tuna or... 1 spoon of nutella#which like nothing wrong if i wanna go ham on some nutella i will but if i'm in the kitchen hungry for lunch i'll pick the tuna now yknow??
